JT4 is partnered with the U.S. Department of War's SkillBridge Program, which is designed to provide internship opportunities to transitioning military personnel during their final 6 months of service, thus preparing them for a full-time civilian position once they separate.

JT4's SkillBridge Programmer Internship is a unique 60-90 day opportunity for transitioning service members to obtain thorough OTJ (on the job) training from JT4's top technical SME's. During the internship, the service member will be provided a training plan outlining weekly tasks and goals to be accomplished. The goal of the internship is to prepare the transitioning service member for a full-time Programmer role at JT4. Some examples of required Programmer duties and responsibilities are outlined below. Important: While the program is designed to prepare the service member for a full-time, civilian position, JT4 has no obligation to hire the intern on full-time or to continue the internship if it is determined that the intern does not meet expectations.
